Between 1938 and 1955 several reports indicated that the prevalence of depression in the general population was below 1%. Comparing these figures, as shown in table 1, with figures in the 1960s and ‘70s reveals that even the lowest figures in the psychopharmacological era (from the 1960s) are 7 to 10 times greater than the highest figures before the introduction of antidepressant drugs (Silverman 1968).

  • Selective Blockade of NK2 Or NK3 Receptors Produces Anxiolytic- and Antidepressant-Like Effects in Gerbils ⁎ N
    Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behavior 83 (2006) 533–539 www.elsevier.com/locate/pharmbiochembeh Selective blockade of NK2 or NK3 receptors produces anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects in gerbils ⁎ N. Salomé, J. Stemmelin, C. Cohen , G. Griebel Sanofi-Aventis, Department of Psychopharmacology, 31 av Paul Vaillant-Couturier, 92220 Bagneux, France Received 17 October 2005; received in revised form 1 March 2006; accepted 9 March 2006 Available online 19 April 2006 Abstract There is a growing interest in the potential anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects of compounds that target neurokinin receptors. Since the structure and the pharmacology of the human neurokinin receptor resembles that of gerbils, rather than that of mice or rats, we decided to investigate the anxiolytic- and /or antidepressant-like effects of NK1 (SSR240600), NK2 (saredutant) and NK3 (osanetant) receptor antagonists in gerbils. It was found that saredutant (3–10 mg/kg, p.o.) and osanetant (3–10 mg/kg, p.o.) produced anxiolytic-like effects in the gerbil social interaction test. These effects were similar to those obtained with the V1b receptor antagonist SSR149415 (3–10 mg/kg, p.o.), diazepam (1 mg/kg, p.o.) and buspirone (10 mg/kg, p.o.). Fluoxetine and SSR240600 were devoid of effects in this test. In the tonic immobility test in gerbils, saredutant (5–10 mg/kg, i.p.) and osanetant (5–10 mg/kg, i.p.) produced similar effects to those observed with fluoxetine (7.5–15 mg/kg, i.p.), SSR149415 (10–30 mg/kg, p.o.) and buspirone (3 mg/kg, i.p.). Diazepam and SSR240600 were inactive in this paradigm.
